HEADSTRONG is an initiative to reduce the painful stigma experienced by Canadian children and youth living with mental health problems and illnesses. It is also intended to reduce the stigma experienced by their families. HEADSTRONG is giving Canadian youth the encouragement, knowledge, and tools they need to fight against this serious problem that threatens the wellness of so many young Canadians.
Over 5 years, our leading researchers evaluated 60 anti-stigma programs. HEADSTRONG was born from the best evidence. Launched at a national summit in Ottawa in November 2014, HEADSTRONG brought together youth from across the country committed to — and excited about — creating positive change.

An evidence-based program deisgned to teach youth to develop coping mechanisms for stress and anxiety.
More than 120 Regina Grade 4 and 6 students have been given some new "FRIENDS" to help them better cope with stress, as part of a pilot program in Regina Public Schools. The Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region and Regina Public Schools teamed up this school year to offer an innovative pilot program to 122 students in Grades 4 and 6, giving them tools to help reduce and better manage stress, anxiety and depression. The program is funded by the RBC Foundation through its five-year Believe in Kids pledge. "Children are experiencing more stress, and this can lead to physical and mental health problems," said Robert Stephenson, RQHR psychologist and Regina FRIENDS pilot project coordinator. "The FRIENDS program equips kids with coping tools at an early age, so they can be more successful in dealing with situations as they arise, hopefully preventing significant difficulties later in life." FRIENDS is an acronym for the skills and lessons emphasized in the program: -Feelings -Remember to relax -I can try! I can do my best! -Explore coping plans and solutions -Now reward yourself -Don't forget to practice -Smile and stay calm for life

A storytelling site by and for people with lived mental health experience. Helping to break down stigma by educating through stories and experiences.
We all have something to share from our experience with mental health, regardless of where we are in the journey, and this is what this blog is about. This blog serves in 3 ways: 1) to facilitate those of you who have a mental health issue(s), or care about someone who has a mental health issue(s), to write about your experience for the purpose of telling part of your story and sharing your wisdom, by having it published on this site (click here for more info on Superhero guest blogging); 2) to give you the opportunity to read what myself and others have experienced and I hope with all my heart that will help you to feel less lonely and misunderstood and maybe even a little bit empowered; and 3) to educate others who are interested in putting themselves in the shoes of someone who has a mental health issue.

"As impactful as these times have been on each of us as adults, this pandemic has also deeply impacted our youth. Children and teens are spending less time with their peers, which can influence mood, behavior and mental health, as well as affect their development. Youth and adults alike—ourselves at Yoga Ed. included—are cycling through thoughts of “I’m fine, we’re fine” and “we are definitely not fine.” In this toolkit, you will find tangible, effective tools to nurture healthy communication and connection as we navigate this uncertain time.
This toolkit is designed as a resource for caregivers in order to:
Better understand your own mental health needs and the needs of the youth in your life,
Provide ideas for sustaining self-care practices, and
Learn practices to support connections between caregivers and youth."

But when you hear the stories, and see the impact mental illness has on the lives of so many around us, it's hard to stand idly by. Together, we can and must change the way mental health is treated not just in Canada, but around the world. We invite you all to join the movement. Watch the videos. Share the content. Donate now.
